“Eva was fantastic, she had my pack of little dogs all day and overnight and didn't seem overwhelmed at their antics. The dogs all seemed to love her and enjoyed all the attention provided. When we came home my house seemed tidier than when we left,which was great! Eva arrived promptly and sent me photos and updates, I would definitely recommend her services and I wouldn't hesitate to book her again.”


“Rhiannon was a fantastic cat sitter! She took great care of my cat, Loki, for a week, and I couldn’t have been happier with the service. She was friendly, helpful, and kept me updated throughout the week, which gave me peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter! ”


About: Hi I'm Alma! I have my own dog Snowy back home in Australia, have petsat for friends' dogs (including large breeds like Great Dane mixes) for years and used to volunteer walking dogs at a rescue. I'm also a huge fan of cats, having lived with several over the years and currently am the regular sitter for my friend's two cats Clio and Famke. I used to be a mouse breeder, and am happy to look after any other animals in the house as well, as well as very comfortable with administering medication. I'm currently job searching, so I have plenty of time to spend with your babies! I can do longer daily drop in visits, or stay overnight at your house to keep them company. I'm happy to stay overnight to keep your pets company and water any plants. I'm very neat and tidy and will generally be spending my time cuddling with your pet and/or knitting.
“Sarah is the BEST sitter hands down. Our puppy Louie loves her, she takes great care of our home, she is professional, and definitely passionate about providing excellent care. We love Sarah!”

“Kayleigh is very sweet with Willow and great at sending photos and communicating. She stayed on an overnight and everything went smoothly. Can’t wait to work with her again!”

“Jacob was absolutely amazing with Millie and Ellie! He was so kind and accommodating—he even picked them up and watched them at his house for the weekend. He took them on long walks, gave them so much love and attention, and kept me updated with messages and pictures the whole time. It was so clear how much he cared about them, and it gave me complete peace of mind while we were away. I couldn’t recommend him more—Millie and Ellie adored him!”

“Yi-Hao was the absolute dreamiest person to look after griff whilst I was in Cambridge for a gig. Griffy was so happy to hang. Went above and beyond and left our Airbnb in better state than we left it. Would highly recommend !!!”

“Olivia is an absolute delight! She took such wonder care of my sweet boy. She clearly is very experienced with pets of all kinds! Getting to know her has been such a pleasure. I cannot recommend Olivia enough!!!”

“10/10! No issues, great communication, and came home to happy and well-looked after pups and a home just as we’d left it! We will continue to reach out to Vicki first for pet sitting anytime we leave town and highly recommend anyone to do the same.”

“Charlotte looked after our house and dog like they were hers, and was able to work around our bossy corgi who likes to think she's queen of the house. Will definitely use Charlotte again!”

“Aleksandra is an absolute pleasure to have dog sit our nervous boy Charlie! She really goes above and beyond to make him feel comfortable. She's conscientious and extremely communicative. We can't wait to have her back!”

“Emma was very good with our cat Zeta, she gave us lots of updates when we were far away and also made sure to give her lots of playtime! Emma kept our flat very clean and was very responsive whenever we had a question or needed to solve some issue. She has also given us the best photos of Zeta we've ever seen - highly recommended!!”

“Lucia is a warm, friendly, and highly professional dog sitter. From the moment she walked through the door, our dog took an instant liking to her, which immediately put us at ease. She clearly has a deep understanding of dogs and was thorough in asking all the right questions about our pet’s routine, preferences, and any house rules to follow. We felt completely confident leaving our pup in her care, and it’s clear she looked after her with genuine attention and love. Thank you, Lucia, for taking such great care of our dog, we wouldn’t hesitate to book you again!”

About: I’ve been around animals since I was about 2 years old and I’ve had pets at home since I was 8 (cats and dogs). 🥰 My family even adopted a stray dog when living abroad (in India ) and trained her from scratch. It was a lengthy but very rewarding process. It taught me a lot about dog psychology and training. We often used to foster dogs before they went into their forever families or did dog sitting for dogs to stay at our house overnight. I really love all animals, I am very patient with pets and very attentive to their needs. I am a full-time MPhil student but I am very happy to take care of your pets (for doggy walks, drop in visits and house sitting) whenever I am free. I am usually available during the evenings and on week ends ☺️ I can completely understand how daunting it might be to leave your pet at home while you are away. I will always try my best to make your pet as comfortable and happy as possible 💕 I listen to their special needs, whether they require special exercises to remain occupied or frequent belly rubs! 😻 Please let me know about your pet’s routines and I will adapt accordingly :)
“Tina is brilliant, she was available to cover a last minute request to help whilst away for a family wedding and we couldnt have asked for better. Coco seemed very comfortable with her and she gave us real peace of mind, definitely will be using her services again, thanks Tina !!”

“Sophia was house sitting for me and took care of my dog and three cats. They had great time and the pets were well looked for despite the challenge of managing all four of them at the same time. Communication with Sophia is effortless and I received frequent updates from her.”

Rocio was amazing with our two dogs. She spent quite a bit of time with them beforehand in a meet and greet so that they were comfortable with her in the house, and quickly built a positive bond with them. Rocio was extremely professional and attentive, and I would definitely recommend her if you are looking for someone to take care of your doggos!

Simply can’t recommend Emma enough! She was absolutely incredible with my nervous pup, who warmed up to her really quickly. We met for a few play dates prior to the house sitting, and it was clear Emma knew how to be around and support anxious dogs. I could tell my dog felt safe and relaxed with her ❤️ She also sent me regular photos of him while I was away and kept me updated on how the little chap was doing. She was incredibly respectful of our home, as well! So grateful we found her!

Lynn was a lifesaver for my partner and I. We were looking for a qualified sitter, and on a bit of a time crunch, and she more than delivered. Our girls absolutely loved her, and she did an amazing job at making them comfortable. The daily updates and photos of them were so nice. We will most certainly be booking with Lynn again if she has future availability. Cannot recommend enough!

Sophia is amazing! She watched my two dogs at my home for a week. My dogs are always a bit anxious when I go, but it was clear how comfortable and happy they were with her right away. There were lots of check-ins with photos and walks, and Sophia was very helpful when I had scheduling challenges. I would 100% recommend!

This was our second time having Maisie take care of our American Shepherd Rocky. He loved seeing her again when she stopped by for the house keys. As usual, Maisie was very communicative while we were away, and kept our home clean and tidy. We couldn’t ask for anything more.

Berkant was absolutely phenomenal taking care of J while we were out of town. Before the booking, he came by to introduce himself and took J on a walk, then returned the day before to go over J’s routine and take him on a longer walk. During the stay, he visited four times a day and walked J for 30 minutes to an hour each time. He sent photos, videos, and updates after every visit, which gave us complete peace of mind. I cannot recommend Berkant enough and will definitely be booking with him again.

I had such a great experience with Ivory! She was incredibly kind and sweet with our girls and made me feel so comfortable leaving them in her care. She sent thoughtful updates while we were away, which I really appreciated, and it was obvious they were being well loved and taken care of. I would absolutely recommend Ivory and hope to book with her again in the future.
